The only one in that list that I've flown is the T-28. The other day I was
in Charlotte and it turns out they have an aviation museum there. Of all
things, they have an H-46 helo from the last Marine squadron I worked at,
HMM-161. That was a weird feeling.

Juan,

You may be correct. Now let me see where I fit. Definately not 90+;
however, SNJ, SMB, T-33, T2J, T-28, T-34, A3D, A6A, P2V, P5M, R4D. Oh my,
I must be getting old!!

Nah, when you know you're getting old is when you _start_ finding them in
the museum. By the time you can only find them in museums you already
know you're an old fart, and you're probably volunteering at the museum.

And I just got a flashback of a 90+ yr old volunteer at the Vintage
Flying Museum who flew B-17's in WWII and still gives tours, clambering
all over the airplane to teach people about the history of the airplane.
Everytime I think about that it reminds me what it feels like to see
"awesome" in person...

I get the same type of a blank stare when I mention A3D.

You know you're old when ...the only place you can find an aircraft you
flew during your military career is a museums.

You know you're old when some kid posts a picture of a plane you've
flown in captioned: 'What the hell is THIS?'

(It's an AJ-2, son. A nice airplane and one of the largest to have
flown off an Essex-class carrier.)
